Hello. Let’s talk about self-care. Who practices self-care regularly? I’ve been making an absolute effort to practice self-care, and it’s definitely improving my mood. I floss, meditate, do qigong, breathwork, etc. Yes, flossing is self-care, take care of yo teefs. What does everyone do for self-care? Bonus question: Where else can I post questions besides Ask Lemmy?
Flossing is self care? I group that under “maintenance”. It’s the same level as going to the bathroom, washing your hands, etc. Self care, to me, is taking time that could be “productive” or doing something required and instead going for a walk or reading a book. It’s a positive act that’s not self damaging. Eating too much ice cream is not self care, but a bite might be.
I classify anything that helps your mood as self care lol. Drinking tea would be self care. Flossing helps your teeth stay healthy so I figured it counts.
Is screaming racist and sexist remarks at strangers self care?
It helps my mood!
N-no? You’re supposed to take the kindness and compassion you show yourself and apply it to others :/
